This mornings drive into church was a hairy one. It was snowing when i left home, but only 1 km down the road visibility went from 500m to 100m, or less. The snow was sticking to the windscreen and i only had a hole the size of a football to look through. At those times the focus is to stay on the road and on the right side of the road. Two hours later, the sun was shining.

A question for Canadians: if it is raining heavy it is said to be "raining cats and dogs", what is heavy snow called?

Visibility on the way into Broken Hill was one guide post ahead - not snow, but a magnificent dust storm! And we had had two weeks of rain and more rain on the Sunshine Coast, and a night by the roadside waiting for flood waters to go down between Hay and West Wyalong!! Back to drought in Adelaide and a non-existent vegetable garden, just brown and dry yellow. At least snow is consistent!
